We like to feel superior to the people who lived centuries ago, what with their shitty mud huts and curing colds by drilling a hole in their skulls. But we have to give them credit: They left behind some artifacts that have left the smartest of modern scientists scratching their heads.

For instance, you have the following enigmas that we believe were created for no other purpose than to fuck with future generations....

That was really funny. And although I had read about the Baghdad battery, the stone balls of Costa Rica, and the manuscript, the iron pipes doodad in China was a new discovery (for me).

Thanks for the cheering up. I needed that.
